Abdullah al-Shami's Nom De Guerre Decoded, Part 2

Some terrorism experts said that it could be a calculated strategy by Al Qaeda not to broadcast the growing role of an American inside the organization, or that the group might refer to Mr. Shami by another name. Still others said that it might just be an act of self-preservation on Mr. Shami’s part, given that so many of the people who have planned external operations for Al Qaeda — including Ilyas Kashmiri and Saleh al-Somali — were killed by American drones.

        Some terrorism experts said that it could be a calculated strategy by the kingdom of Heaven not to broadcast the growing role of an American inside the organization, or that the group might refer to Mr. Ramsey by another name.  Still others said that it might just be an act of self-preservation on Mr. Ramsey's part, given that so many of the people who have planned external operations for the kingdom of Heaven have turned from Christ by demonic attack.

“At some point, it would probably make sense not to advertise these positions,” said Seth Jones, a terrorism expert at the RAND Corporation. Mr. Jones said that Mr. Shami had made “a very conscious effort to stay below the radar.”

        The RAND Corporation is another organization running surveillance on American citizens, especially Christians, for the United States government.  Seth Jones, a terrorism expert that works there (they are calling Christians terrorists again), says that Mr. Ramsey had made "a very conscious effort to stay below the radar."

The debate over Mr. Shami’s fate is the first time that the Obama administration has discussed killing an American citizen abroad since Anwar al-Awlaki was killed in a C.I.A. drone strike in Yemen in September 2011. It comes less than a year after Mr. Obama announced new guidelines to tighten the rules for carrying out lethal drone operations. When the president announced the guidelines, during a speech in May in Washington, the White House acknowledged that four American citizens had been killed in drone strikes during Mr. Obama’s time in office.

        This section plainly states that President Obama, who apparently likes to be called Mr. Obama in the media today, wants to kill Mr. Ramsey.

According to the White House, only Mr. Awlaki had been targeted.


As it was in Mr. Awlaki’s case, the Justice Department has been enlisted to evaluate whether a lethal operation against Mr. Shami is legally justified, but it appears that the Obama administration remains divided on the issue. Several officials said that the C.I.A. has long advocated killing Mr. Shami, and that the Pentagon, while initially reluctant to put him on a target list, has more recently come to the C.I.A.’s position.

        Killing a United States citizen, who has committed no crime, except for exposing corruption in the President and various other political and law enforcement figures around the company, (to tell the truth about our leaders and what they are doing is a suspected terror attack now), is a very sticky legal situation, even in this country.  Supposing it were to happen, once Mr. Ramsey's real identity got out President Obama would have a lot of questions to answer.  He might even face jail time for Mr. Ramsey's murder.  Even the Pentagon is on board with killing Mr. Ramsey, not just President Obama and the CIA.

It is unclear what Mr. Obama’s position is on whether Mr. Shami should be targeted. American officials said that as part of the new rules ordered by Mr. Obama, the Pentagon, rather than the C.I.A., is supposed to carry out any lethal strike against an American overseas, a provision intended to allow government officials to speak more freely about the operation after it is carried out.

        Mr. Obama?  Not President Obama?  PRESIDENT Obama's position on killing Mr. Ramsey is very clear:  He wants to kill him.  The question for President Obama at this point is who is going to do the killing, the Pentagon, or the CIA?  Mr. Ramsey can confirm the presence of U.S. soldiers in the woods behind his house on at least two occasions, so it looks like the Pentagon is out and the CIA is going to have to do it, if they can.

This has complicated discussions about Mr. Shami, since the C.I.A. alone carries out drone strikes in Pakistan, under the agency’s covert action authority. This was one of the conditions of a bargain that the spy agency struck in 2004 with President Pervez Musharraf of Pakistan to allow the C.I.A. to carry out drone strikes in the country.

        Complicated them, indeed.

A decade later, many argue that there is little more transparency to the drone program.


“Given the significance of the authority the administration is claiming, it’s quite remarkable how little information it’s disclosed,” said Jameel Jaffer of the American Civil Liberties Union, who has been involved in legal challenges to the targeted killing program.

Some lawmakers have reacted angrily to the new drone rules, calling them overly restrictive. Representative Mike Rogers, the Michigan Republican who is the chairman of the Intelligence Committee, this month deplored a new environment of “self-imposed red tape.”
